Praising her Coldplay rocker husband Chris Martin for his loyalty, Gwyneth Paltrow also says that her marriage is just fine, people.com reports.

Speaking to the U.K. edition of Elle, Paltrow admits that she cannot listen to Coldplay’s Swallowed in the Sea “without crying,” because it helped her cope with the loss of her father, Bruce Paltrow, whose October 2002 death left her devastated and depressed.

“It’s so hard for me to listen to some of those songs,” the Oscar winner says of Swallowed and Fix You. As for Martin, “I’m amazed he stuck with me (at the time her dad died), because I was a wreck. I can’t believe that he did.

But stick with her he did, and the couple now has two children: Apple, 4, and Moses, 2.

Despite that, the Martins are dogged with rumours about their marriage, because they are often not seen with each other. As she has said, they simply don't like being photographed on the red carpets arm in arm.

“It doesn’t behoove us to be a public couple,” adds Paltrow, who’ll be a Grammy presenter this weekend. “He certainly doesn’t want to be that. We’ve never ever walked down a red carpet together, we never will. If people think that that means we're not together, then — ha ha ha — so be it.”
